Ubisoft Reveals Details on The Crew’s June Update

Developers Ivory Tower and Ubisoft Reflections have announced today full details on the June update coming to the open-world racing title The Crew.

The Crew’s June update, as was the case with the April patch, will introduce new features, improving the UI, addressing bugs and tweaking the controls of specific cars.

The June update will be deployed on June 3 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC.

The Crew, which was released in December 2014, received a three out of five from Hardcore Gamer, with our review emphasising that “It’s not a bad game, as there’s a lot to like in this package, but there’s also a fair amount holding it back.”

Listed below are full details on The Crew’s June update:

New features

Leagues:

A new leaderboard system for PVP game modes has been added.

By earning points in PvP races, players will be able to progress in the Leagues.

There are 4 leagues: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum with each league having 4 divisions.

The players will progress or be demoted in the leagues based on their activity in PvP game modes.

The faction system has been rebalanced to give more chances to lesser-populated factions in the monthly faction war.

The UI has also been modified and redesigned to help players track their progression inside their faction as well as the global activity on the map.
